Sohn von Thomas Zach und dessen Commanditgesellschaft, griech. Hoflieferanten, Patentinhaber etc. Die Gesellschaft löste sich bald wieder auf, und J. Lutz übernahm den Instrumentenvorrath. Zach imprägnirte das Holz mit Harz, um ihm Nahrung zuzuführen, erzielte jedoch, wie viele Andere, damit keinen Erfolg.
